' Oh , but I can't, "said the pretty blue fly,

She neither would sorrow nor fears would

So on she went that morn 
With her head raised hi^h. 
And the mouse he took an oath 
On that day she should die.

Always running down the street 
Trying hard to hide his feet, 

That are big enough for three.

Vain man, upon the street. 

In a carriage he should ride
